About this retreat

6th – 8th October 2023

Buddha Shakyamuni Practice – A Treasury of Blessings is a practice we do every morning at Gomde Lindholme Hall. It is wonderful for all practitioners including beginners as it is easy to understand and on closer inspection, the text is a treasure trove of teachings. Lama Öser will explain how to do the practice and talk to us about the inherent teachings. There will also be time for questions and answers.

About Lama Öser

Lama Öser is one of our very senior monks at the Ka-Nying Shedrub Ling monastery. He has studied under many great masters and for a number of years was the personal assistant of the great Dzogchen master Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche. We are therefore very fortunate that Lama Öser will reside here during Autumn 2023 leading retreats, teachings and talks. Lama Öser will also support practitioners with all aspects of their practice and is available when in residence, to support those who undertake retreats at the Gomde UK.

Our Rooms and Retreat Facilities

To keep abreast with our growing community of residents, visitors and volunteers we are continuously extending all our accommodations. Over the years, we have developed and refurbished derelict rooms and added Rinpoche accommodation, Lama suite, a commercial kitchen, extra bathrooms, and many sleeping rooms.
